Desperate defenders operations card and assaults

Normally speaking the rules say that disrupted squads can't defend against assaults and the OP card "desperate defenders"reads that pinned and disrupted squads can still make a concentrated attack at half firepower. The question is whether defending against an assault qualifies as an "attack". Lietrally I suppose it doesn't, but it just adds a tiny bit more teeth to the card, which I feel is often warranted and perhaps sometimes at least, even intended. Therefore I always allow disrupted squads to still defend at half strength in an assault. How do you play this?

This card brought some debate between my friend and I the other week as well since it was used in one of the scenarios.  We played that they were able to participate at half firepower as well.
